OpenForge 2.0 Cut-Stone OpenLOCK Base

thingiverse

OpenForge bases now support the OpenLOCK system, enabling you to seamlessly integrate any OpenForge 2.0 internal 1x1, 2x1, 2x2, 2x4, and 4x4 tiles with this popular locking tile system. We've collaborated closely with Printable Scenery, wholeheartedly endorsing this open standard for connecting tiles. It's essential to note that OpenForge operates on a 50 mm basis, whereas OpenLOCK is based on the inch measurement. The difference between these two systems on a 2x2 tile amounts to only 0.8 mm. Although our bases adhere to the inch scale, you can easily utilize standard openforge tiles on them without any issues. The disparity in size is roughly equivalent to the margin of error that comes with standard printing, making it virtually imperceptible when using metric tiles on top of imperial bases. If the discrepancy bothers you, simply print your x and y axes by a scale factor of 1.016, and you'll be working within the inch scale for the tile as well.

OpenForge is now a patron-supported project, relying on the resources provided by our patrons to create more sophisticated and detailed tiles. In return for their support, we deliver an ongoing stream of high-quality gaming terrain.

When selecting a base, consider the following factors: 1. The tile size: This will correspond between the tile and the base, such as 2x2 or 4x2. 2. The tile shape: Choose from square, diagonal, or curved options. 3. The base style: Select from plain, stone, or ruined styles. 4. What size basis do you want the tiles to be in? There are three choices: * 25mm: Every square is 25mm on a side, compatible with Dwarven Forge. No scaling of the tile top is required when using 25mm bases. * Inch: Every square is 1 inch (25.4 mm) on a side, compatible with Printable Scenery (OpenLOCK), DragonLOCK, and HirstArts. Scale your tile top by 101.6% in both the X and Y axes when printing. * Wyloch: Every square is an inch and a quarter (31.75mm) on a side, compatible with Hero's Horde and Wyloch tiles. Scale your tile top by 127% in both the X and Y axes when printing. 5. What connection system do you want to use? We offer four connectivity options: * Magnetic: Uses 5mm spherical magnets placed along the center of every square on the edge of the tile. * Magnetic + OpenLOCK: Combines magnetic connections with an OpenLOCK connector at the vertex between each square. * OpenLOCK: Features an OpenLOCK connector at the vertex between each square. * OpenLOCK Triplex: Includes an OpenLOCK connector at both the vertex and center of each square. **Changelog** 02/02/18 - Diagonals had a bug in their names; the size ended with x4 regardless of the actual size. 02/02/18 - Curved set was missing for 25mm bases. 10/24/17 - Upgraded to a new version of the scad file, uploaded new base versions, added 25mm/inch/wyloch bases, and introduced curved and diagonal options. 4/26/17 - Updated scad to allow disabling OpenLOCK connections. 12/31/16 - Added missing bases from OpenLOCK 4.0 (EA, SA, SB). 12/31/16 - Introduced new OpenLOCK clips. 12/31/16 - Adopted a naming convention matching OpenLOCK standards.
